I'm not sure if this is really possible (then again i've not done  
it). You should probably make sure the static library is a Mach-O FAT  
file (lipo -info libJeremy.a), and then you might be able to cross- 
apply whatever Linux technique you've google'd up, provided it uses  
the standard GNU  bintools (ar, ranlib, etc)

Of course, the easiest and reliable way would be to recompile into a  
dylib :)
